Your Infinit Story: I started using Custom infinit nutrition
in January 2015, I was training for Ironman Mont-Tremblant and I wanted my
nutrition to be simple and stress free. I wanted to be able to concentrate on
my racing rather than remembering to take this type of gel every 30min, that
nutrition bar every other time and doing the calculation of how much of each I
would need to bring and how to carry them on the bike and run.

Infinit nutrition was the answer, an all-in-one drink that
covers all my nutritional need. After a consultation with Darcy, we quickly
came up with my personal formula for endurance events. I immediately started
using Infinit in my training and I loved the simplicity, two scoop per bottle,
one bottle every hour. That was easy to remember and it worked.

The first real test came in during IRONMAN
Mont-Tremblant 70.3 2016.That year we raced in very hot weather, a
sunny 30 celcius day with a real feel of about 38 Celsius. During the bike and
run I didn’t really think about, I just kept my strategy to drink about 1
bottle every hour and I was feeling good. But after the race, I saw how many
people were dehydrated, some were forced to abandon, others spent hours in the
medical centre! At that moment I realized how well I was hydrated and fuelled; that is how good Infinit Nutrition is. From that moment onward I was hooked and
used my personal long distance formula for every race, event and
training session including Ironman Mont-Tremblant, several 70.3 and Olympic distance
triathlon, Grand Fondo, road races and long trail runs.

What do you hope to achieve in the coming years? Qualifying
for the 70.3 world championship is the main goal, I also want to race the full
distance again and race more ultra-trail

Years in the Sport: Competed for U of Windsor varsity

Infinit Story: After graduating from the U of Windsor
in 2011/12, I decided to continue training full time in order to compete for
Canada and make my first Olympic Games team, a long time goal of mine in the
sport. I met with Darcy at Infinit early in this quadrennial, on the
recommendation of friend and fellow teammate Melissa Bishop, who had already
been using the Infinit products. I was excited to learn about the
Infinit story itself and to bring them along on my own journey. Having a fuel
source that is customizable to my individual needs was very intriguing to me! I
love my blend in that I can change it for my needs throughout the season,
However, I've only needed to change my custom blend once since starting with
Infinit. In addition, I love the Raw protein and repair blends for my
intense training needs and they mix great in my post training smoothies.

Future Goals: What do you hope to achieve in the coming
years?: Currently training to again represent Canada in 2018 at the
Commonwealth Games in Australia and the North American Central American and
Caribbean championships in Toronto, with the long term goal of representing
Canada at every opportunity, including the next Summer Olympic Games!

my personal and professional life which is why working with a company like

Leslie-Anne McKenzie is our next featured athlete in the I Am Infinit series! Leslie has been fuelling on Infinit since 2009! Learn more about Leslie and her life as a Career Practioner and triathlete below.

Leslie-Anne, with Coach Angie Anderson at IMCDA 2016. Leslie-Anne placed 5th in her age group here. Angie was the one who introduced Leslie-Anne to Infinit!

Occupation: Career Practitioner in a high school

Sport: Triathlon

Years in the sport: 10

My Infinit Story: I took up “triathloning” as a means to
get into some sort of shape. When asked what I was training for I would always
say, “life”. After my 1st race I was hooked and I began to call myself a
triathlete.. As I began to train for longer distance races I needed something
that would get me through. My coach introduced me to Infinit and I have not
looked back. I have tried other products, epic fail! 3 Ironman's, many half’s,
standard and sprint distances (and all the training) later I am still using my
custom blend. One tweak to my mix in all the years. I will freeze it and have
what I call “Infinit freezies” while I bike; during a hot triathlon it is the
best-treat ever. The Recovery product is very good and that too is freezable and
after a long hot training ride followed by a brick run it is SO refreshing!

Your future goal in sport: What do you hope to achieve in
the coming years? I hope to be still doing triathlons and do one more Ironman
when I turn 60. My 1st was when I turned 50. I see it as a great way to
celebrate a new decade. If I’m truly blessed, I’ll do one when I’m 70! If my
knees give out then Aquabike here I come! I will continue with Infinit because it
works, plain and simple.

Meet Simon Aldridge, an Infinit user for only 9 months but already hooked. Here is his Infinit story.

Occupation: Scenic Carpenter, Stratford Festival.

Sport: Duathlon Sprint and International.

Years in the sport: 3 years in Duathlon.

My Infinit Story:I am relatively new to Duathlon, this being my third
year. My first two years of competing put me on the podium in most races in my
age group but I felt that things could be better. I was training properly as
per my coach but I was lacking energy on the second run and was taking a long
time to recover even after training runs and rides. I started this year wanting to qualify in my age group
for the Denmark Multi-sport World Championship 2018. I had to get my
nutrition sorted out to compete at the longer distance. I looked into what
Lionel Sanders used, he burns way more calories in his races than I do. This
led me to a consult with Infinit in early spring. This was a revelation for me.
Now I have all my race needs in a custom liquid form, formulated to my bodies
needs. I can come off the bike and have energy to finish the last run and then
its straight into a bottle of Infinit Repair.

Future goals: This winter will be spent on training
for the Worlds next July. There are other races along the way but the focus is
to represent Canada in Denmark.
